Motors will have a Dean’s connector on them for easy installation and removal from the cars. This connector will not be removed for any reason unless approved by the Race Director.

                            #BL2263 ’65 Ford Mustang

 

If there are any other bodies available from this “era”, please make it know to the Race Director for approval. No “Touring Car” wings allowed!! Some of these bodies come with a rear deck “spoiler” which may be installed on the body. No wing is allowed whether the body set comes with one or not. Bodies must be cut not higher than the body manufacturer’s cut line(s). No “slammed” bodies allowed!!

All cars must have three (or more) racing numbers affixed. These numbers must be affixed to both sides of the car and on the hood. A fourth number on the trunk is optional. The actual number is of the entrant’s choice but should look like the racing numbers found on cars of the late ‘60’s or early ‘70’s era.

While not mandatory, it would be nice if the bodies are painted in a “period authentic” manner as regards colors and schemes. This doesn’t mean the body has to be painted to duplicate a particular “real” race car from that era, merely that the body should LOOK like something one MIGHT have seen back then. Fluorescent paints, wild graphics, etc hadn’t been invented yet. If you look at the cars on the Historic Trans Am site (http://www.trans-amseries.com/) you can get an idea of what cars from this era looked like. As you can see, fairly simple paint schemes were the norm. It’s not our intent to be absolute sticklers on this point, but it WOULD be nice…
